I can’t possibly write about hangovers on television without bringing up the onetime queen of tequila shots herself Meredith Grey. Back in her early intern days, soon after finding out that her boyfriend had a wife, Dr. Grey found herself at work after having a few too many. To ease her hangover she opted for a “banana bag.” She was in a hospital so it makes sense that IV fluids were relatively easy for her to access...
but these IVs can be costly and according to Harvard Health, they may not actually be your best bet. “While oral fluids are generally recommended for hangover symptoms , dehydration is not the only cause of hangover symptoms,"Bottom line: The medical benefits of direct IV fluids to treat hangovers are somewhat unproven and often you can achieve the same results by simply drinking fluids.
Drinking alcohol doesn’t directly cause dehydration, but it promotes urination because it inhibits the release of a hormone called, which decreases the amount of urine made by the kidneys. So, drinking water is very important to counteracting the effects of alcohol. Jo made the right choice by admitting she was hungover and going to get some water. Sadly, she found Alex’s house was lacking in paper cups. So, if you too have a cup shortage or are simply too tired to do the dishes, take a cue from Alex and drink directly out of the faucet, assuming of course you have safe drinking water.
